Is it bad.....

Not to have your parents introduced into the Reception?

I posted yesterday about FH's mother wanting to have her blind date be introduced with her. Now I just talked to my mother and she doesn't want to be introduced.

your FH's mother is having a BLIND DATE for her son's WEDDING????!?!? that's insane

can't she be escorted in by someone else--like another sibling or like her brother or something?

i think its unfair that your parents wouldn't be introduced just cause she wants to intro'd with some stranger. i think FH needs to get involved in this one big time


ETA: i just read your other post---honestly i don't see anything wrong with the best man escorting her down the aisle and going back for the MOH or just staying up there with your FH

at our wedding, DH's brother was the best man....he walked his mom down the aisle and she sat down and then he joined my DH at the altar. the MOH walked by herself. why not do it this way?

I could not agree with you more. His mother is being ridiculous. We didn't even invite her with a guest because of this reason. She called yesterday all upset that she could not bring anyone. That she is going to be set up on a blind date because FH's father is remarried and she is not. She wants FFIL to think that she has been with someone for over 20 years. I think that is just so stupid. Expecially since FFIL knows that she has no one. So now she is only going to look desperate. Plus now we have to pay for a guy she has never met and may not even like. She even wants him to be included in all of our family photos. FH is going to speak with her about everything. FH doesn't care if she brings someone she offered to pay for his plate since he is a blind date.

As for being introduced my mother really doesn't want to. She has been battling cancer this whole year and feels that she will be too weak. I understand of course, but how can Fh's family be introduced and not my mom. I think it would be silly to do that.

That actually could work since we have two Best Men. Fh's brother could walk FMIL down and the other Best man could walk the MOH. Thanks!

hope it works out!!!!!

it def. sounds like FMIL is being unreasonable and immature about this......my father is deceased so my mom is walking into the church & reception with my sisters husband, her son in law. I don't think that is the time or place to show off someone she has just met. especially to actually think you guys would include this stranger in your wedding photos!! unbelievable!! good luck with this situation, I hope your FH works it out with his mom!
